Can't import Python package installed with pacman

ruy · 07-20-2020, 08:10 PM

Hello, I was reading and I decide install my python packages with pacman (I use 3 or 4 packages usually). But when I install it and try to use it with import, I have the issue:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named pandas

The same error with numpy, matplotlib, statsmodels and beautifulsoup4 (these are the only packages I use).

I'm using spyder as editor (also installed with pacman).
I don't care the virtual environmet (I'm the only user of the PC) and don't create one. Only work with the scripts.

Thank you

Ruy

Show us the code, and full error messages.

Hello ondoho, the full message is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "grafico.py", line 6, in <module>
import matplotlib.pytplot as plt
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'matplotlib.pytplot'

In this script I also load pandas and numpy.
In this case I'm using Vim and running the script in terminal, but the issue is the same with Spyder.

Thank you.

Look at a python program in your /usr/bin and see how it's done there.

Hello ondoho, thanks for your fast answer.
The only one difference in the python docs is that start the scrpit with the line:

#!/usr/bin/python3.8

Or some variation of this (/usr/bin/python2, .../env python, .../python).

Thank you.
